Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)(Update): I see that Amazon has eliminated the 'lilac' image it has been presenting for the past 2 weeks. Unfortunately, that gets me back to my original comment. I guess if I were in charge of Amazon, I would hold Johnson Brothers to task for producing such junk.(Original):
Nicely packaged, inexpensive and made in England.
Now, the Bad:
It is unsurprising an image is not available. These platters (I purchased 3) are all seconds. The scene depicted was in sepia and supposedly showed Washington, DC (not the one recently -5/5- added by Amazon). You have to use your imagination though. Try to think of a copy that has been run on a printer low on ink and you have an idea of how indistinct this depiction is.
I rated this 3 stars primarily because of the $6.99 price.

Historic America was originally introduced in the 1930's as a tribute to America and reintroduced in 2001 in warm tones of sepia to reflect the sense of history.Each piece features a finely detailed engraving of a famous American city or landmark as a tribute to the memories of early America. The designer selected over 30 different scenes all about 100 years ago, from which copper engravings were made. To lend unity to the series the famous over all "oak and acorn" design was used as the pattern for the border of each piece.Many interesting examples of this designs are to be seen today in the American wing of the Metropolitan Museum and also at the Philadelphia Museum.A distinguishing back stamp bears the American Eagle and the title of each scene. The featured scene on this 13 inch Platter is the Independence Hall.All pieces are dishwasher, freezer, and microwave safe.
